Bold and quiet at once: a small gold-tone brass tau cross filled with glossy black enamel, the Franciscan sign of Pax et Bonum - peace and all good.
Size: 7/8" (2 cm)
Material: Brass, golden color, with black enamel
Blessing: Blessed by Pope Leo XIV
Shipping: Ships from Rome, Italy
Long before St. Francis of Assisi made it the badge of his order, St. Anthony of Egypt wore the tau on his cloak in the desert, giving this cross roots in the very first monks. The black enamel lends it an understated, everyday look that works as well on a cord necklace as on a favorite bracelet.
